So what’s the difference? Well, when our event comes back (probably in September), it will be slightly different. Over the past several years, BSI has absorbed the cost of the workshops, preferring to provide them freely to our customers. Makerspace Saturday events will no longer be free. Most of the events will cost a nominal fee of $5. The fee goes towards materials. This will allow us to do new projects that have been cost prohibitive to us in the past. The fee may be more for certain projects, but we will let you know clearly when and if that happens. Higher fees will probably apply more to science and technology projects.

There may be other changes here and there. We’re still working out a few details as we move forward.
